I believe learning should be fun and engaging, as well as educational - which is exactly what I base my teaching style around! Maya Angelou said it best, 'People may forget what you said, but people will never forget how you made them feel.' I base a lot of my teaching philosophy around this idea. I had a teacher in Primary School who was fun, energetic and made every lesson engaging. He was the kind of teacher that made learning feel exciting and made you feel like you were in an environment where you were safe to be yourself. Out of all my school years, this is the one I remember most vividly. That kind of teaching style was inspiring, and it is exactly how I like to teach!
